Our cosy secluded Kookaburra Cottage is perfectly situated near the Olinda and Mt Dandenong villages, as well as the National Rhododendron Gardens. Minutes drive to most of the beautiful wedding venues in the Ranges too. You have a wonderful treed and garden view even from the loft bed! Enjoy the generous breakfast hamper supplies at a time to suit you, and late checkout of 11am.

Nestled amongst the magnificent rhododendrons and camellias, Kookaburra Cottage is the ideal setting for relaxation and indulgence. A stunning elm tree shades the private deck, whilst the floor to ceiling windows offers spectacular garden views and an abundance of light.
Architecturally stunning, Kookaburra Cottage is set over two levels with the queen size brass and cast iron bed on the mezzanine level where it is cosy and warm. Relax in front of the gas log fire, curl up on the couch or stroll around the many paths of the established gardens.
Immerse yourself in the romantic ambience by soaking in the spacious and deep double spa. There is a CD player, TV and DVD player for your enjoyment and a fully equipped kitchenette for your convenience. Breakfast provisions including some local produce are included in your stay so you can stumble out of bed when it suits you.
An extra adult or child can be accommodated in a foldaway bed for an extra charge of $30.
Awaiting your arrival, Kookaburra Cottage will be warmly lit with soft lights so you can leave your stress at the door.

Cambridge Cottages sit in 1.2acres of gardens, a discreet distance from the house which was built in 1947.
We are pretty much the closest accommodations to the National Rhododendron Gardens which are spectacular especially in the spring when the cherry blossoms, rhododendrons and azaleas are at their best.
We are about 10 minutes walk to either the Olinda or Mt Dandenong villages, and minutes drive away from many attractions, shops, cafes and gardens, as well as wedding venues, making us the ideal base for guests and honeymooners.

Had a great stay. Incredible surroundings perfect for a complete getaway. The sights were impeccable and the cottages feel overall was perfection. Highly recommend.

Bryce and Diane were friendly and welcoming hosts. They were generous with their hospitality and made me feel at home. The loft was cosy, photos were accurate, and I would certainly recommend this as a comfortable place to stay.

Sarah2015-11-23T00:00:00Z

Bryce and Diana helped out when we were in urgent need of accommodation. Please note the ladder stairs to the loft are steep, good to know if you have balance/vertigo issues. It had suitable blankets and heating for the cold windy nights. Soft bed for those who like soft beds. Well equipped kitchen, fresh eggs from the chooks.

Penny2015-06-11T00:00:00Z

The loft is really nice: It's private; the facilities are good; and the location is nice. Bryce and Diane are wonderful hosts, very friendly and easy to be around. Then there are the friendly animals. We spent a month here and enjoyed every moment.

This part of Hawthorn East is quiet, well established and centrally located.
Two large shopping strips are nearby, each with their own ambience and charm. Burke and Glenferrie Roads each have supermarkets and a selection of boutique shops, restaurants with a selection of various international cuisines and entertainment (pubs and cinemas). The railway station, historic Auburn Village and its coffee shops are a 5 minute walk away.

Excellent self-contained space, stayed for a month and had no issues. Hosts very friendly but also not intrusive, and extremely quick to deal with requests. If you want a stay in a quiet area with good access to the city, definitely recommend.

Great little Loft apartment with easy access and very private. Comfortable bed and everything we needed was there. Also good to see quality towels, sheets etc. loved it

Cameron2017-07-14T00:00:00Z

Perfect stay in a really cosy and modern apartment. We were welcomed late in the night by the wonderfull host Barry. We felt very at home wonderfull bed and great shower. Every day we were within 15 minutes in the center.

annelies2016-08-16T00:00:00Z

I loved staying in Barry and Cathy's beautiful studio loft apartment. I was there for three nights as I was working in Melbourne. The loft was a peaceful haven after spending a busy day at work. There were lots of thoughtful aspects about the loft. Chocolates and small bags of biscuits, myki cards and plenty of information about the area and Melbourne. Barry responded quickly to me via email during the booking process. Cathy greeted me on arrival and farewelled me when I left even though it was early in the morning. I will absolutely be staying here again for work in the future. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Georgia 2016-07-08T00:00:00Z

Barry and Cathy have a lovely place - perfectly suitable for a business traveller or holidaying couple. The apartment was clean and cozy with modern fittings and appliances. Barry and Cathy are friendly and accommodating hosts. I would definitely stay here again.

Leafy Green Ivanhoe is just 9 kms from the CBD. It is a suburb much sought after to live in. It dates back to aboriginal occupation and early european settlement and is loved for its hills and parklands and waterways. It has wonderful parks to explore, an interesting architectural heritage, and great local art galleries. It has retained a lovely strip shopping centre with a variety of eateries and shops including supermarkets. There are marvellous schools here, and world renowned hospitals and Latrobe university is 20 mins away by bus.

Margaret was a very attentive host. The whole experience outstanded my expectations. Beautiful house in a quiet location, close to public transport. We definitely recommend this place to anyone coming on a short trip or on a long vacation to Melbourne.

Dimitri2017-04-20T00:00:00Z

Margaret is a gracious host and will go above and beyond to ensure you're happy and comfortable. The space is immaculately clean and the garden has spectacular views. If you're looking for a quiet retreat away from the crazyness of the CBD, this is the perfect spot for you!

Such an incredible and house and location, I felt like a had travelled out to the bush retreat only to be able to wander out the front door and be in the middle of the city in half an hour. Margaret is such a welcoming host always curious to see how she can improve your stay. I big recommendation for anyone visiting Melbourne.

Ky2016-02-29T00:00:00Z

Beautiful views of Melbourne and parklands. Friendly and hospitable host. Plenty of street parking. Good ventilation in room leading to comfortable cool nights in the summer

My Host made me feel welcome with a tour of the house, explanations of how things worked and a nice cup of tea. the room I stayed in sas spacious, light and airy with a comfortable bed. She provided books and leaflets on the features and history of the local area. there are beautiful views of the Darebin Creek Parklands from the house, as well as nearby access to walks along the creek. It was very quiet and I had two good nights sleep. Margaret provided a lovely healthy breakfast.

Jenny was a lovely host, being her first occupants she was more than welcoming, accommodating and happy to help in any way. The house was clean, tidy and warm overnight! Breakfast, tea and coffee was a lovely extra as well. Would recommend to all and personally would stay again.

Bill2016-09-14T00:00:00Z

Beaut! Out of all of the Airbnb's I have stayed in, this has been far and above my favourite. The house is a delightful cottage with a cool spiral staircase to the room upstairs, and it is a quick walk to the local shops and train station (less than half an hour to the city). Jenny is wonderful - she's fun, relaxed, easy to talk to, and a very kind and generous host. I had a great time staying, and I will definitely stay again.

Matt2017-02-08T00:00:00Z

Lovely and very caring host, excellent location and a memorable stay. I would strongly recommend.

You are staying upstairs in the very old stable at the rear of our property, set-up as a self-contained basic, quirky private retreat. The retro wallpaper adds charm. Opposite the beautiful Barkly Gardens, you can walk to East Richmond, Burnley & Richmond Stations, Gleadell St market, Richmond Recreation Centre, the Yarra River, Swan St/Bridge Rd shops and restaurants, Rod Laver Arena and the MCG.

The space is comfortable, quiet and secure. The double futon is new and very comfy. Amenities are basic and the decor is circa 1960's.
The place is very old and looks old, including the bath. It's suited to people that are not fussed about old buildings and the peccadillo's of old buildings.

The neighbourhood is residential and quiet especially at night - even though you are in the heart of Richmond. Swan St is busy with plenty of restaurants and bars to choose from and a Coles supermarket - all walking distance from our place.

Melanie is very friendly and helpful. Comfy accommodation. Convenient location with a short walk from the railway station.

Great things about the area - It's walking distance to most things, public transport options are close by, numerous bars and restaurants to choose from.

Matt and Sophie's place was spotlessly clean and private, close to public transport and with plenty of eateries and shops along nearby Bridge St. Easy communication throughout. Highly recommended.

Adam2016-02-22T00:00:00Z

The accommodation was perfect for our trip to Melbourne. The room and bathroom were spotless and we were surprised by how spacious it was. The fact it had it's own entry was fantastic. Really convenient for public transport to the CBD and easy to explore richmond, collingwood etc. Matt and family were also great hosts and were flexible with our arrival time, even after our flight was delayed. Would definitely recommend! Thank you!

Eve2015-09-28T00:00:00Z

It is a good place to be for a few days sleeping. We use it to get to Melbourne and find a final place to be during our stay at least 6 months in this city. Matt is always ready to answer our messages of this app. It is an honor to be their first guests!!

Adolfo2015-05-06T00:00:00Z

Up the stairs above the garage we found a very simple, elegantly designed and comfortable space, very secure and easy to access - a nice bed and a smick tiny bathroom. The family was welcoming and we enjoyed the quiet; we liked being just a few minutes away from the Bridge Street tram and some good cafes and restaurants, and it's close to the city, too.

Trish2015-04-26T00:00:00Z

Matt's place was perfect for us as we were attending a workshop in the cbd so we needed a clean safe place to crash! His place is a 2 min walk to Bridge Road with trams and restaurants aplenty. The private entrance was ideal as we had to leave early each morning and could do so without disturbing the family. Thanks Matt!

Andrea2015-08-04T00:00:00Z

I had a very welcomed, peaceful and restful stay with my hosts. Matt was very obliging to my needs. The room offers privacy if that is what is required. Yes clean, tidy and in good order. The location is central for business needs and Richmond offers a lot of cafes, eateries, bars & restaurants for things to do, all walking distance from residence.

Checking in with Matt was very easy and quick. I was made welcome and felt at home. The room was very clean and neat, the bed comfortable. All very modern, a fantastic shower. Perhaps a small bar fridge would have made it perfect. I loved the location of the Loft. So close to many restaurants, shops and transport. Walking into the city was easy and pleasant. Private back entrance to the Loft felt safe even after dark. Parking was easily available in the quiet street.

Spacious room in the heart of Richmond. The room is the largest in a 3 bedroom place. Has plenty of space with cupboards and a desk. It also has a sky light for natural light (and electric blankets which are the coziest thing!)
Tram stop right outside home 10 minutes to CBD (30 minutes walking). There's an abundance of Viet, Thai, dumpling, vegan/vego eats, great pubs with amazing pub grub and wine bars.
2 minutes walk from Church St, Swan St and Victoria St (10 minutes) for more exploring!

Located above a store (the store is vacant so noise isn't a consideration) is accessed from a quiet alleyway. The apartment has a huge balcony (smoking is fine) and an open kitchen, lounge and tv/ entertainment area. A shower and bathtub and a separate toilet.
There is a supermarket, bottle shop, butcher, baker... a 3 minute walk from the house!
The other 2 housemates are amazing people working full time Monday-Friday. Love a beer or 5 and to hang out at the pub. Always keen for a (terrible) movie. Please be very respectful of their privacy and that it's a shared space. We all spend time at home and often watch movies and have drinks together.
There are so many delicious places to try you couldn't manage them all (happy to offer recommendations).

Whilst there are 2 huge apartment complexes near by (we are a single loft/ apartment) its not that residential. Although we're technically on Bridge Road we're accessed off a lane way behind it.
Bridge Road has so many bars, eats and shops. It's good for a wander and explore.
The best coffee (best that is closest) is the waffle place which is a waffle cafe and laundromat .The waffles are delicious too.
Richmond is great to be out of the city but still so close. You can explore the city and walk to Fitzroy and Collingwood or get a tram/ train to Brunswick.

Jason2017-07-02T00:00:00Z

Linda and Josh- thank you, thank you, thank you! We booked this apartment last minute for our anniversary and could not have been happier. It's a beautiful and unique loft in an incredible location. We spent the night in using the outdoor cinema and the ping pong table. The set up for the outdoor cinema is pretty incredible and I've never seen a similar set up elsewhere! The outdoor area is quite big for an inner city loft and it was so nice to be able to snuggle up outside and watch a movie during the night and sit out in the sunshine during the day. The place was clean, stylish and unique- we loved it! Overall, I couldn't recommend this place enough. We'll definitely be back!

Jodie2017-08-22T00:00:00Z

Cute, rustic attic room in Northcote warehouse. The warehouse space is quite cavernous and prone to being hot/ cold - this room is kind of like camping indoors! Comfy queen futon, basics such as clothes rack and desk provided. Very steep staircase.

Cute attic room in warehouse complex behind the main drag in Northcote - a lively suburb of Melbourne home to many great music venues, bars and wonderful places to eat. The warhouse itself is unrenovated - i.e. quite open, a little bit dusty and a true arts warehouse experience! We keep things as neat and tidy and as clean as we can but the nature of the space means that there is a certain ever present 'grunge' element. We are super friendly, the room is cheap and cheerful but certainly not uber clean. Please don't book if this makes you uncomfortable. The staircase to the attic bedroom is also super steep, so care must be taken when climbing up and down the stairs.

Northcote is such a wonderful neighbourhood. 20 mins from the city, 15 mins from Collingwood (which is where we work and super great!) it's just far out enough to be relaxed but there's still heaps happening. The Northcote Town Hall is literally at the front door and boasts music and theatre all year round. There are some great music institutions such as the Northcote Social Club for local and interstate indie bands, Bar 303 for Jazz, Open Studio for world/ gypsy music, crepes and true bohemia! Bars are open late and there's lots of great food including Pizza Meine Leibe (best pizza northside) and Tahini felafel eatery. There's lots of local shops as well boasting Melbourne made and ethical goods including Green Horse, Obus, A quirk of Fate, I dream a Highway, Local Shop, Brown and Bunting and tons more. Fantastic vinyl at Rathdowne Records and Thornbury Records. Decent coffee and brekkie at Penny Farthing.

Was the perfect place to stop as we wanted to go to the Northcote Social Club for a live music event and it was only a short walk home.

Gary2016-10-30T00:00:00Z

We stayed with Genevieve and Esala for 4 nights and although we didn't see them much (which was only because we were exploring Melbourne), we had a lovely stay and they made us feel more than welcome. They went above and beyond to make us comfortable and supplied a lovely cereal for the morning. If we are ever in Melbourne again, we would definitely stay with them again.

Kate2016-04-01T00:00:00Z

The room was as described and the hosts were very friendly and went out of their way to accommodate us.

Jimmy2016-05-15T00:00:00Z

It was a pleasure to stay with Gen & Esala. If you want creature comforts look elsewhere, but if you want an authentic Melbourne experience, look no further.

This place really felt like home. We absolutely loved our stay here! Like it states in the description it's an actual warehouse; it was full of charm and creativity. The room was clean and they made a lot of effort to ensure our stay was as comfortable as possible (mosquito net and fan in room). What made our stay head and shoulders above any other Airbnb was the hosts - Gen and Esala are lovely, thoughtful, sharing people. As newbies in Melbourne we could not have asked for a better introduction to the city.

Cosy small loft fully self-contained, with on-suite, washing machine & TV. Kitchenette. Very close to cafes and pubs and trains, trams and buses. Entry is via back gate. Backyard is a delightful setting for shared use. it is perfect for one. However, for a busy weekend (short term), the loft could accommodate a couple.

The loft is cosy and welcoming. It is located on top of a garage. It has air conditioning and heating. While small it has all that will be needed by short stayers. No hot plates for cooking but do have toaster, kettle, microwave, small fridge, sink and condiments. Small desk available as well.
I respond to reviews and have ensured that if any problems are identified, I will fix them, if not immediately then as soon as possible. Wifi reviews appears to be mixed, with a couple of reviewers identifying the wifi was not as good as expected. One time, the modem was found to be faulty but this has since been replaced. Since then, each time I test the wifi with my own devices in the loft, I have no problems. My current and similar guests who are researchers and use internet have had no problems with the wifi. If a guest does have a problem, then please let me know as soon as possible.
I have installed a TV monitor and have internet TV (wifi and not cabled), which includes Netflix. If guests would like free-to-air TV, then I recommend downloading an app called FREEVIEW. Freeview allows access to streaming free TV. On the internet TV, guests can access ABC iview and SBSondemand and other such delayed broadcasts, and NETFLIX. As of July 6th, I have installed an updated modem and the wifi signal is much stronger.
There are a couple of marks on the carpet in the entrance, as one goes in the door. I have spot cleaned these multiple times, but they persist. I am sorry for this but I cannot do anything else at this stage.

The streetscape is lovely with tall overhanging plane trees. The house is near a train track but trains are quiet. On the other side of the train track is a landscape creek that meanders all the way to the centre of the city of Melbourne with many attractions on the way. Many shops, cafes, music venues, with a pub around the corner.

Enjoyed a great stay in Nth Fitzroy. Denise is a lovely host, the place matches the description and is conveniently close to train, bus, tram stops. It is a good area, plenty of parking, and leafy surrounds. Do recommend!

Jules2015-11-03T00:00:00Z

Location is near train, tram and bus station. I really enjoy living in Denise's loft. It's a really comfortable and cozy space. Host welcomed me on my first day even though i was late. She bid farewell to me when i'm checking out too. Highly recommended accommodation!

Denise was incredibly helpful and welcoming - and checked in regularly, which I really appreciated. I loved the loft and it was perfect for a longer stay. I would definitely love to stay there again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Melbourne. Thank you so much to Denise, it was a fantastic stay.

Jenifer has a gorgeous place in a great location that was very accessible to other parts of the city. She was a friendly and courteous host that provided good advice about local eateries and how to get around Melbourne. Thanks for having me, Jenifer.

Jennifer is very generous with her time to you. She will help you to get around in Melbourne. This stay she did not live in the apartment and that was really nice to have a great cosy place for your own. The place is quiet, clean and has a nostalgic touch. Shops are basically around the corner. The Fitzroy Gardens my favourite are just 5 minutes walk. I walked every day to the Rod Laver Arena in 25 minutes.

Very nice arty house and so unique! Like an art gallery not exaggerating! Good location in walking distance to Victory St, many parks, close to train station, tram, many restaurants and cafes around. The room is spacious, clean and very good kitchen offered. Jenifer is very kind, generous with a good sense of humor. Will recommend to the future guests!

Staying with Jenifer was wonderful experience. She was very nice, kind and informative. It was very contemplative and artistic space reflecting her taste. Location was also very convenient. You will find everything you need in same area. I really enjoyed staying here for 3 weeks. I would absolutely recommend this place who travel Melbourne alone or for first visit. She is really helpful.
